Shift: Successful Capture

I came to, wonderimg what the hell happened, everything was pitch black. A few holes were in this... container of some sort. All i could hear was cartoons on the T.V unable to use my powers for a short while, i just decided to listen to the T.V for a while.

Then a sudden rush of power ran through me, my powers came back, i was chuffed. The problem is, i could be in a public area, considering that the T.V is on, and that seeing as im a bird, seeing a human burst out of the box they put the bird in isnt exactly... normal. I was a secretive person, i didnt like the fact that people knew i had powers, in fact i didnt like that fact that even Swarm or Phase knew, but they already knew before I did. So i guess that doesnt count.

But anyway, back to the point. Im stuck in a cardboard box, judging by the smell, taste. I could also hear a cat purring. I peeked through one of the holes, it was Felix! I guess im responible for everything bad thats happened to her house, i think im just a bad luck charm, but then again life doesnt exactly go perfectly well all the time.

I guess i had to take the risk and hope that she wasnt in the room, gone to the kitchen for a cup of tea or something. I shifted into my human form, and when i did she saw me and she screamed. I hate my very good hearing, it really hurt my ears.

I had cuts from the glass shards, regardless of not being able to be hurt by man-made objects i still could be wounded, seeing the blood kind of made me feel some sort of pain.

I tried to run away from her, but my leg didnt seem to want to move, and i just collapse, the traquilizer must've numbed my muscles. I couldnt escape. Looks like im going to have to wait.

Exercise summary

In a time not to far ahead of our own, there are people with powers, you can live in secret or be out in the open, you can be enemy of the government or friends, you can fight for good and evil, right or wrong or just for the sake of it. Create a person with a power!
